"It's dark in here." ...Deja Vu... - HP844182, on 10/12/2007, -0/+26I've had déjà vu about having déjà vu a couple of times.
"Man...I've done this before...holy *****, I remember thinking about when I did this before..." - sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21I get deja vu all the time on digg. It's probably just the reposts though.
- inactive, on 10/31/2007, -1/+13I'm getting a mad case of déjà vu right now, i could have swore i saw this exact story, with the exact same summary, on slashdot
- Onwlyix, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12Wow, that's interesting. I've always been baffled by Deja Vu. It's a freaky feeling.
- floppyparty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Can the same theory be applied to hearing?
Basically, a gap between the time the brain processes input from each ear causes one to feel like they have heard something new before? - mtownand1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4blind people are people too.
/sarcasm
//sarcasm - MikeOSX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4...it's like deja vu all over again...
- CanceledCzech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I believe it. Here's an article explaining how it works:
http://digg.com/health/Deja_vu_recreated_in_laboratory_or_have_you_read_this_before_2 - MikeOSX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4...I thought deja vu means that they're changing something in the matrix?
- streetstealth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Deja vu is the sense that an event you are experiencing has previously happened.
To "prove" that the blind can experience deja vu is to work from the completely backward assumption that they somehow don't "experience" events. - gcnaddict, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Too much information.
- westsand, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That and being able to tell when people are staring at you makes me believe in ESP.
- Bean945, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Déjà vu rules.
- CanceledCzech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Déjà Vu...
- Matt01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I dont know if anyone else has this but i have a dream about an event, the dream is in the back of my mind and then the event happends in real life, in days weeks or months later.
At that point i remember I had the same dream weeks or months ago, but when i realise this i had the same feeling in my dream weeks or months ago.
Its hard to explain but i think its some form of deja vu. - qazxsw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I agree streetstealth.
It never even crossed my mind that deja vu was even primarily a visual experience, let alone exclusively. It's certainly not for me. - vhold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Err.. I didn't even know this was a question. When I experience Deja Vu it almost always is tied mostly to the audible component of the "memory."
- WaterDragon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3But seriously, I've found that Deja Vu is often a recollection of something that I experienced in the dream state. Thus, it seems like it actually happened before, but I am not exactly sure at the time.
It's just a vague recollection.
Technically, the first time it was experienced -- could be termed a 'clairvoyant dream'.
That is nothing so special.W all have those all the time, but we are just not cognizant of that fact. - OhJay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"It's dark in here."

"It's dark in here." ...Deja Vu...
;) - hackwrench, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2How does "already experienced" turn into "already seen"? It seems to be a misiterpretation of ""It is almost like photographic memory, without sight obviously"
This article is so inaccurate.
"One explanation for déjà vu is that images from one eye are delayed, arriving in the brain microseconds after images from the other eye - causing the feeling that they are being seen for the second time."
And considering the feeling of deja vu involves the feeling that the situation is similar and not just what is being seen, who'd buy that theory.
"Optical pathway delay is a quite antiquated theory, but still widely believed," said lead author Akira O'Connor of the University of Leeds.
By who? Unsourced. Cite a study in which interviews were conducted that bears this out. - xtarburst, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Daja Vu is a human feeling , get over it
- ElectricKetchup, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I've had deja vu about songs before, so I know for myself, it's not limited to just visions.
- HsoKinees, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this seems like Psychic Dejavu to me.. i'm pretty sure "psychic dejavui" isn't the real name, but that's what I call it... sometimes... probably once a weekw, I get dejavu, even though i'm 100% sure that has never happened before o_O
- salinemist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I have it too; freaks you out, doesn't it?
- Pengyone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I also dream about an event, only for it to happen later. Some events go on for five minutes or more, during which time I feel paralysed. Most recent example was a boy shouting at me in the street and then meeting the same boy about ten minutes later, who shouted at me again (I was wearing a rugby shirt he did not like). I then replied to the boy's father almost as if I was in a dream. I then realised I had dreamed all of this (including my reply to the father), and then got into a state of panic - I then realised that in my deam, I had got into a fight with the boy's father. Fortunately this part did not happen. Strange, innit?
- MrStabby, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I've heard and smelled things before...
Doesn't mean I'm experiencing Deja Vu...
Isn't the deciding factor in Deja Vu a detailed feeling of being in an event once before...
The vaguest of all details is color...and I dunno about you, but I sure as hell can't smell color... - chris9902, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2really? I went to see that film. I didn't get it.
I was ok the second time. - willyallthewei, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This article misses the obvious.
Everyone knows Deja Vus are just glitches in the Matrix. - Gee455, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I thought this was about the movie.
- CHARLSTORMFRONT, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Sight has nothing to do with Deja Vu. My thought is every bodies life is already stored in their brain but most people can not tap into it. When you see glimpses of the future it was already there you are just accessing a glimpse of your life.
- FishPoisonCon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1"Technically, the first time it was experienced"
technically, deja vu IS the first time you're experiencing it, the whole point is you THINK it's not... and any sensory input can be the source. - WaterDragon, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1I have the strangest feeling....like...this story was on digg before.
EDIt: Damn..."imthedarkcyde" beat me to it. - raynar, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Hmm...this herpe bumb DOES feel familiar...
